Commentary


Antoine est le fils de Charles, duc de Vendôme et de Françoise d’Alençon, né en 1518. Il devient duc de Vendôme en 1537 puis sera roi de Navarre en 1555. Il meurt en 1562. Ce jeton est fait par Claude Lemay, tailleur de la Monnaie de Paris en 1541 (Mazerolle, I, CLIV et 512, n° 539).

Historical background


VENDÔMOIS - VENDÔME

Made up of the Vendôme region and the Loir Valley, Vendômois was confiscated from the English by Philippe Auguste and attached to the royal domain in 1214. Erected as a duchy in 1515 for the house of Bourbon, it was given to César de Bourbon, natural son of Henri IV and Gabrielle d'Estrées. The duchy was definitively attached to the Crown in 1712.
